Steve McClaren to be named new West Ham manager

Former England boss Steve McClaren will be the new West Ham manager.
The former Middlesbrough boss was relieved of his duties with Wolfsburg in December 2010 and has been looking for another role ever since.
Avram Grant was sacked as West Ham manager after the Hammers lost their penultimate Premier League fixture to Wigan, sending them down to the Championship.
It is now understood that David Gold, David Sullivan and Karen Brady have set their heart on McClaren to lead the Hammers back to the top-flight.
The Everton assistant manager Steve Round is believed to be McClaren's first choice as this number two.
